Niagara Falls 



Under the hill there can be discerned beneath the shadow of 

 the Height the old road leading up from the lower level of the 

 dock to the upper level upon which, what is left of the Town of 

 Queenston stands. It is marked and scarred with the ruts of 

 many decades and full of memories. Upon these slopes the 

 Indian made his way to the waterside at the Chippewa creek. 

 Here came the trappers with their bales of furs brought down 

 from the far North- West. Here came the voyageur traders of 

 France with beads and gew-gaws for barter with the Indians, and 

 later the English with blankets and firearms. 



In the earliest days two portages were available, one on each 

 side of the river, but during the French period and for long, long 

 after the one on the east side from Lewiston was mainly used, its 

 terminus at Lake Erie being called Petite Niagara as distinctive 

 from the great Fort Niagara at its lower end.

The following titles contain no information in their imprints which makes 

 it possible to assign even an approximate date for the publication. Under 

 these circumstances it seemed best to list these together at the close of this 

 chapter, with no attempt at a chronological arrangement for them.
